What are these for? There's one on each side on the bottom of the inner fender well  below the headlights.

  One air bag , two air bags, or more,  it doesn't matter.  Theses are the crash sensor that send a signal to the SRS (supplemental restraint system) controller that a significant impact has occurred and the air bag(s) are to be inflated.  

  If the Impact zones covered by these sensors are: the left front, the front, and the right front.

  That sensor, impact sensor 56006911, is used in 1994-1997 Dodge Rams and the wiring diagram for a 2001 ram 2500 does not show them.  If that broken sensor was used by the SRS the airbag fault light would be on.    Did you have those inner fenders replaced with used parts?

Yeah, all the warning lights are trashed in my truck. I really need to go to a salvage yard and see if I can find all the little odds and ends that are missing on my truck.
